Management Options
CiscoView application
The CiscoView device-management application displays the switch image that you can use to set
configuration parameters and to view switch status and performance information. The CiscoView
application, which you purchase separately, can be a standalone application or part of a Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP) platform. Refer to the CiscoView documentation for more
information.
SNMP network management
You can manage switches from a SNMP-compatible management station that is running platforms
such as HP OpenView or SunNet Manager. The switch supports a comprehensive set of Management
Information Base (MIB) extensions and four Remote Monitoring (RMON) groups. Refer to the
switch software configuration guide on Cisco.com and the documentation that came with your
SNMP application for more information.
Cisco Intelligence Engine 2100 (IE2100)
Cisco IE200 Series Configuration Registrar is a network management device that works with
embedded CNS agents in the switch software. You can automate initial configurations and
configuration updates by generating switch-specific configuration changes, sending them to the
switch, executing the configuration change, and logging the results.
Network Configurations
Refer to the switch software configuration guide on Cisco.com for network configuration concepts and
examples of using the switch to create dedicated network segments and interconnecting the segments
through Gigabit Ethernet connections.
